Club semi-final fare reflects county dominance

One glance at this weekend’s fixture programme should be enough for the penny to drop. You certainly don’t need a third-level degree to take from it that the dominance of certain counties on the big stage is perfectly mirrored at club level.

In Ennis tomorrow afternoon, there’s an All-Ireland junior and intermediate club football semi-final double-header. Both games bring together the champions of Kerry and Mayo.

In the corresponding semi-finals at the Athletic Grounds in Armagh, Tyrone are represented on the double.
